April 16: Hannah Olson
Patient Advocate & Founder of Chronically Capable
This Thursday’s virtual meeting will be led by patient advocate and founder of Chronically Capable! The young founder from Massachusetts currently resides in Austin, Texas.
During her sophomore year at Boston University, she was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease which nearly derailed her early career. Rather than accepting this fate, she created a company last year called Chronically Capable which exists to help people with chronic illnesses and disabilities to find flexible work opportunities. Her ultimate goal is to eliminate the unemployment gap between disabled and abled Americans. In addition to discussing her experience creating Chronically Capable, Hannah will be leading a discussion on ways to be proactive while job searching during this pandemic.
Spaces are still open for this meeting! If you’d like to join, send us a message at virtual@healthadvocacysummit.org!
